Lighter Sesame Chicken

This recipe for sesame chicken is a little 'lighter' than the other sesame chicken recipe I posted and I actually like it better! I think it has a better flavor and it is just as easy!

To make this you will need:

12 oz. CHICKEN THIGHS, cubed

1 EGG WHITE

2 Tbs CORNSTARCH

SALT

PEPPER

1/4 cup HONEY

2 Tbs SESAME SEEDS

2 Tbs SOY SAUCE

1 GARLIC CLOVE, minced

1 Tbs VEGETABLE OIL

2-3 GREEN ONIONS, chopped

In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg white, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Then, mix in the cubed chicken.

In a small bowl combine the honey, sesame seeds, soy sauce, and garlic.

Add a tablespoon of oil to a skillet and heat it over medium-high heat. Then add the chicken and cook for a 5-7 minutes until done.

Once the chicken is cooked, pour in the honey mixture and toss the chicken in the sauce. Remove the chicken from the heat and garnish with the chopped green onions! Serve over rice, with steamed broccoli on the side!
